There are burned-out and eviscerated carcasses of cars everywhere. Fire is now fashionable in the cités: in Les Tarterets, residents had torched and looted every store—with the exceptions of one government-subsidized supermarket and a pharmacy. The underground parking lot, charred and blackened by smoke like a vault in an urban hell, is permanently closed.

Just like Palestinians expressing their culture. Add in some beheadings and it all becomes so quaint.

the Spaniards were one of the only countries ever to free themselves of Islam.

And now they are losing it again.

the incentive for police not to record crimes

I saw a documentary about New Orleans a while back, I guess it was after Compass became Chief of Police and was gaining accolades for cleaning up the crime, but the truth was they just stopped arresting anybody.

Albanians ran rampant in Greece and Italy due to gun control and lax border control.

Serbia didn't put up with it until we bombed them into submission, for which I am ashamed.

They're ready to let the barbarians be in charge. Spain must also have been that way at one time, it took them 700 years to get rid of Islam.

And 600 more to knuckle under again.

The US does not have the resources to move them to this country.

The way I see it we have something akin to a "trust fund" with which we can help people, in this country and around the world. But if we spend too much on it, we are overspending the income from the trust, and are eating away at the capital.

We started doing that a long time ago with Social Security, and hence I wince, or worse, every time I hear about another giveaway, or an earthquake happens in Paki that I know is going to require tens of billions more out of our pockets. This can only go on for so long as it's a ponzi scheme.

This is an extraordinary article. It is long, but well worth the read.

It will give you an idea of what is actually happening in France.

An entire generation has grown indoctrtinated with the Nanny State, anti-capitalism, anti-war,anti-religion, environmentalist crapola that brings with it no responsibility.They are taught that everything is society's fault.

They have been denied by the rigid class structure in France any opportunity to better themselves and join the society as a productive member. In France it is extremely rare to be born poor, and work your way to success.

The result: anarchy, violence, and lawlessness.

My prediction: either a Law and Order, pro-American pro-Capitalist leader likes Nicholas Sarkozy gets elected, or an extremist leader on the Far Right, brings France closer to National Socialism, i.e. Nazism.
